The Pleasure Of Being Robbed

The Pleasure Of Being Robbed Release Date: October 3, 2008

“The Pleasure Of Being Robbed” follows a young lady (Eleonore Hendricks) as she drifts through life with the naïve charm of curious puppy, who takes whatever she wants, and with the detachment of an adorable kitten, who cares not what you think of her. But Eleonore is neither greedy nor simple. She is constantly stealing, but does so exuding a joy in sharing objects, stories, lives. She steals with a hug, with a shared joke, with a helping hand. The real world does intrude on her beatific kleptomania, and one doesn’t get the sense that people do always understand and appreciate what she does, but as the description of the film says, the people from whom she steals “owe her their thanks.”
